Uchiha Raizen walked alone to a bamboo pavilion in the center of a lake and opened his system status page.
Host: Uchiha Raizen Rank: Genin Chakra: 8.5 Kakashi Units Ninjutsu: Great Fireball, Body Flicker, Shadow Clone, Clone, Substitution, Transformation, Flying Thunder God, Great Fire Annihilation, Raikiri (Chidori), Wood Style, Rasengan, Fire Style: Fire Dragon. Pupil Power: 135 Kekkei Genkai: Mangekyō Sharingan.
Looking at the status page, a faint smile crossed Raizen's face. He finally had the Mangekyō Sharingan.
This ant his actual strength had officially stepped into the Jōnin tier. With more practical combat experience, he would likely have the power to face a Kage-level opponent head-on.
The power of the Mangekyō is a reflection of the soul, intimately tied to the user's deepest desires. The mont the system awakened it, Raizen grasped his two unique abilities.
First Ability: Space-Ti Travel.
Second Ability: Ti Retrogression.
Space-Ti Travel allowed him to traverse unfamiliar or familiar dinsions and tilines. Ti Retrogression allowed him to rewind ti within a 100-ter radius by anywhere from 0 to 24 hours.
Space-Ti Travel...
Raizen looked up at the sky, mories of his past life flickering. "Can I still go back?"
"If I could... would I be able to leave everything here behind?"
After a long silence, he let out a deep sigh. He'd cross that bridge when he ca to it. For now, he would wait and grow.
Suddenly, his figure vanished into thin air. He reappeared at the Ninja Cat outpost in the capital of the Land of Fire.
"Raizen-sama! You're here!" Kohana exclaid, jumping onto his shoulder and affectionately licking his cheek.
Raizen laughed. "The ti has co. I'm here to collect a debt! Have you been keeping an eye on Tsunade? Where is she?"
"They're still at that inn you provided," Kohana reported. "Tsunade-sama goes to the gambling den every single day to play a few rounds before leaving. She loses every ti. She truly is the 'Legendary Sucker' you ntioned; the gambling den's profits are through the roof thanks to her!"
Raizen asked, "Has she borrowed money from the den?"
Kohana shook her head. "No, she uses cash."
Raizen's eyes lit up. Tsunade had borrowed 100 million Ryo from him, with an agreent to pay back 200 million including interest. 200 million was no small sum—it was enough to fund six "High Reward" requests for Kage-level kunoichi!
He smiled. "It looks like our Tsunade-neesan has managed to get so funds together. Co, Kohana, let's go collect. Bring all the IOU slips."
"Right away, Raizen-sama!"
A short while later, one man and one cat arrived at the gambling hall. Imdiately, Raizen spotted a familiar figure.
She wore a green haori with the kanji for "Gamble" on the back. Her blonde hair and that exquisite face—which looked like that of an eighteen-year-old girl—belonged to none other than the "First Milf of Konoha," Princess Tsunade.
At that mont, Tsunade was sat in front of a slot machine, her eyes fixed feverishly on the spinning icons.
"Seven, seven, seven!" she shouted excitedly.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
Three Sevens lined up perfectly. She won.
Tsunade, who normally couldn't win to save her life, had actually hit the jackpot. She froze in surprise.
"I won?" Her expression was one of shock. She pressed the payout button, and the machine began spitting out coins with a frantic clink-clink-clink.
"I don't believe it." She inserted another coin.
Clang! Clang! Clang! Three waterlons. She won again.
"Again? What is going on?" Instead of joy, a frown deepened on her face. "I refuse to believe this!" She pulled the lever a third ti.
Clang! Clang! Clang! Three bananas. Another win.
As the coins cascaded out, Tsunade's heart sank. Winning three tis in a row was a terrible on of impending doom. She sat there, staring blankly at the pile of coins.
"Yo! Tsunade-neesan, congratulations! That's quite a jackpot!"
Raizen's voice chirped from behind her, breaking the silence. Tsunade turned, saw his beaming face, and instantly realized why her luck had turned.
The debt collector had arrived! Truly, an on of disaster!
"I knew it..." Tsunade sighed heavily. "I was wondering how I could win three tis in a row. So it's because you're here, Raizen-kun! You really are my lucky star!"
She let out a long breath. At least it wasn't so other tragedy—just a matter of money.
"Tsunade-neesan, our agreed ti is up," Raizen said, cutting straight to the point.
"Don't worry, would your big sister really stiff you on your money?" Tsunade laughed with forced ease.
"I certainly believe you wouldn't," Raizen smiled.
"Wait here then! I'll head back to the room and get the money for you," she said.
"Alright. I'll be right here waiting." Raizen nodded. He knew that while Tsunade was a gambling addict, she usually had a sense of honor regarding her debts. He sat down confidently in the hall, sipping tea as he waited for the check.
Tsunade exited the gambling den and made a beeline for the free residence Raizen had provided.
"Shizune! Quick, pack the bags! we have to leave right now!" Tsunade shouted to Shizune, who was training in the courtyard.
Shizune stopped and looked at her in confusion. "Tsunade-sama? What happened? We're living here so comfortably. Why the rush to leave?"
"Didn't you say staying here saves us enough on rent to gamble a few extra rounds every day? Why are you in such a hurry?"
"Don't ask questions! Just pack, or I'm leaving without you!" Tsunade barked as she started throwing essentials into a bag.
"Ah! No! Don't leave ! I'm packing!" Seeing Tsunade's panicked state, Shizune scrambled to help.
There wasn't much to pack—just a few changes of clothes and a pig. Within minutes, everything was stuffed into a bag.
"Let's go!" Tsunade led the way, with Shizune following close behind, clutching Tonton the pig in her arms and the bag on her back. In the blink of an eye, they vanished into the distance.
anwhile, back in the gambling den, Uchiha Raizen sat leisurely sipping his tea, waiting patiently for Tsunade to return with his 200 million.
